Hi there, welcome to you! My name is Piera and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas, Colorado, Michigan and Maryland. I received my undergraduate degree in Sociology and Business from the University of Texas at Austin and my graduate/master's degree from New York University's Silver School of Social Work. I love animals, baking, learning about new things, random fun facts, and being in nature.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

I'll follow your lead as you give me a better sense of what challenges you're facing and can work to create a tailored plan together.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I am patient and nonjudgmental. I value honesty, openness, and practicality. You will receive my most genuine self and you will have no greater cheerleader along the way.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I specialize in trauma-informed care and cognitive behavioral therapy with a focus on attachment and acceptance theories. I help children, teenagers, and adults identify, address, and overcome current and past traumatic experiences as well as create healthy coping strategies and build confidence in tackling daily stressors. Together, we will highlight and build upon your strengths and resiliencies with positivity and hopefulness. Let’s empower you!

Piera was kind and made me feel like I was talking to a friend. She also made me feel like it wasn’t one sided. Like we are all human and life is hard on everyone.

Professional, honest, and direct. I appreciate that in therapy, instead of the general script and following along
